Solution

The correct option is B

False


In the previous question we have already proved that

SP=ST=SG

Where S is the focus. S should be the centre of the circumcircle,

since distance from the focus to each vertices of the triangle TPG si same.

Centre of circle circumscribing triangle PTG is S(focus)

and radius SP=ST=SG=|at2+a|
